Listen carefully.

Editor,

George Bush is reportedly preparing a speech to deliver next Tuesday in which he will describe "how Islamic militants think, what they have said about their aims and why the world should take them seriously." Substitute the phrase "BushCo neocons" for the phrase "the terrorists" every time he utters it, and you will hear an accurate description of how BushCo think, what their aims are, and why the world should take them seriously.

Also, whenever George Bush utters the word "freedom" or "democracy" or "liberty", substitute the phrase "enslavement of the people of planet Earth to multinational corporations" and you will understand why he invaded Iraq.
